Loam

Three iOS screens for a plant care app that opens on what needs doing today rather than on a grid of plants.

A design project: we designed these screens, and they were not built by us.

Overview

Loam is a design concept for a plant care app, drawn as three iOS screens at 390x844. The first opens on the day: a serif heading saying four plants need you today, a dark card naming the two with dry soil, and a list where every plant carries its room, its light and the one action it needs. The second is a plant detail page where water, light and humidity sit as three tiles above the next watering time and a care log going back a fortnight. The third is the week, grouped into today, done today and tomorrow, with a day strip that dots the days holding tasks. Warm clay and off-white keep it closer to a gardening notebook than to a habit tracker.

Opens on the job, not the collection

The home screen leads with "Four plants need you today" and a card naming the two with dry soil, with watering one tap away. The full collection is a tab, not the front door.

Every row says where and why

Monstera in the living room with west light, Snake Plant in the hallway marked overdue. Naming the spot and the light turns a checklist into something the owner can act on without hunting for the pot.

A log that earns trust

The plant page records what was actually done and when — 400ml on 1 August, leaves wiped on 28 July — so the next watering date is a conclusion rather than an assertion.

A week that fits on one screen

The schedule groups tasks into today, done today and tomorrow, with a seven-day strip dotting the days that hold work. Six tasks across six plants, one already done, stated in a single line.
